Our Team
We Understand Because We’ve Lived It
​​
At the Adult Autism Assessment Center, this work is personal.
More than 3 of 4 of our clinicians are neurodivergent, and everyone has a close connection to neurodivergence, either personally or through family.
We know what it’s like to feel different. To mask. To wonder why things feel harder than they should.
That’s why we’re here—to help our community.
​
You won’t get judgment.
You’ll get people who get it.
And while lived experience matters, so does training. Our team is highly trained and backed by a rich library of tools and resources.
We combine heart and science—so you get answers that actually help.
